A After four silent years,the 27yearold British singer Adele Adkins has finally introduced herself to the world again with Hello,the opening song from her third album 25,which will come out on Nov.20.‎ Although Adele is a very successful singer now,music wasn't always what she saw herself doing.At age 10,when she saw her grandmother's pain over the death of Adele's grandfather,she pictured herself as a heart surgeon.‎ ‎“I wanted to fix people's hearts.”she told the UK music website iD,remembering the childhood interest she'd had in biology classes until she found out that her real talent was for singing.‎ Adele didn't go to medical school,but many would agree that she still has healing(治愈)powers. “Her songs find the kind of memory every listener holds somewhere in their heart. This kind of feeling is what people have always liked in Adele,”said The Telegraph.“She writes a pop diary,sharing the simple secrets of her heart.”‎ Most successful pop stars make albums at a fast pace,but not Adele. After her second album 21 won the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year,she made it clear with her label that she would spend“four or five years” making her next album. She told Vogue magazine,“I won't come out with new music until it's better than 21.”‎ Instead of seeking fame,Adele remained silent and moved to the countryside. In her free time,she loved to watch TV series Teen Mom,American Horror Story,and The Walking Dead.‎ Living life as normally as possible is important to the singer's art.“Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone who's not living in the real world,”Adele told iD.“So I live a lowkey life for my fans.” ‎ ‎【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述了英国著名歌手阿黛尔在音乐上成功的秘密。‎ ‎1.What does the text mainly tell us?‎ A.The popularity of Adele's album 25.‎ B.The healing powers of Adele's music.‎ C.The secrets of Adele's success in music.‎ D.The reason for Adele's becoming a singer.‎ ‎2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A.Adele wasn't interested in music.‎ B.Adele wasn't good at music at first.‎ C.Music wasn't very important in Adele's life.‎ D.Music wasn't all Adele wanted to be devoted to.‎ ‎【答案】D ‎ ‎【解析】考查句意猜测。根据第二段第二句“At age 10,when she saw her grandmother's pain over the death of Adele's grandfather,she pictured herself as a heart surgeon.”可推知,10岁时,当阿黛尔看到祖父的去世给祖母带来的伤痛时,她想成为一名外科医生,减轻别人的痛苦。故D项正确。‎ ‎3.Why doesn't Adele want to make albums at a fast pace?‎ A.To live a lowkey life.‎ B.To win the Grammy Award.‎ C.To guarantee the quality of her music.‎ D.To share the secrets of her heart as a musician.‎ ‎【答案】C ‎ ‎4.What can we know about Adele?‎ A.Her album Hello will come out on Nov.20.‎ B.She has kept a diary since childhood.‎ C.She moved to the countryside before 2012.‎ D.Her works are based on real life.‎ ‎【答案】D ‎【解析】考查细节理解。根据最后一段最后两句“‘Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone who's not living in the real world,’Adele told iD.‘So I live a lowkey life for my fans.’”可知,阿黛尔的音乐作品基于真实的生活。 上并且这些振动在求爱中也非常重要。‎ ‎9.How does a spider feel that an insect is caught in the web?‎ A.Through its sense of sight.‎ B.Through vibrations of its web.‎ C.Through different frequencies.‎ D.Through a musical pattern.‎ ‎【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】考查细节理解。根据第二段的“The vibrations can give the spider details about what is caught in the web”可知,蜘蛛可以通过蛛网的振动知道有东西落到蛛网上了。故选B项。‎ ‎10.What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?‎ A.Insects.
